NEW FROM LOVESWEPT ON SALE 2/9.

“Ellie Cahill is definitely one to watch!” raves bestselling author Cora Carmack, and this steamy, upbeat modern romance about connecting in all the best ways proves it once again.

Clementine Daly knows she’s the black sheep. Her wealthy, powerful family has watched her very closely since she almost got caught in an embarrassing scandal a few years ago. So when Clementine’s sent on a mission to live up to the Daly name, politely declining isn’t an option. Of course, the last thing she does before boarding the plane is to grab a stranger’s phone by mistake—leaving the hunky journalist with herphone. Soon his sexy voice is on the line, but he doesn’t know her real name, or her famous pedigree—which is just the way Clementine likes it.

Despite all the hassles, Justin Mueller is intrigued to realize that the beautiful brown-eyed girl he met at the airport is suddenly at his fingertips. They agree to exchange phones when they’re both back in town, but after a week of flirty texts and wonderfully intimate conversations, Justin doesn’t want to let her go. The only problem? It turns out that Clemetine has been lying to him about, well, everything. Except for the one thing two people can’t fake, the only thing that matters: The heat between them is for real.

Call Me, Maybe is not a cookie cutter romance. Ellie Cahill brings a story with a You've Got Mail, Love Affair vibe going on. She took a scenario that could have come across silly and is unbelievable but still created a romance that had a quirkiness and innocence to it. Clementine is all over the place. She knows she does not fit in her upper crust family but wants respect, love and acceptance anyway. Justin is her match. He just might be her home. The problem? Clementine has not been completely forthcoming with info about herself. I received an ARC of Call Me, Maybe in exchange for an honest review. This story was really good. The dialogue funny, the characters entertaining and the story cute. Despite a slow start Ms. Cahill delivered an original story that is a winner.

If you love Susan Mallery, Kristan Higgins, or Rachel Gibson, don’t miss the start of this captivating small-town romance series! Laurel Falls, Montana, features spectacular mountain scenery—but it takes a rugged cowboy to convince one woman to slow down and enjoy the view.

Rafferty Hamilton doesn’t plan on putting down roots anytime soon. With her divorce final, the hotel heiress has left Manhattan behind to scout new locations for her family’s chain of resorts. Which is why it’s so frustrating to be stranded in Laurel Falls while a good-looking, slow-talking, Stetson-wearing mechanic takes his sweet time with her overheated coupe.

A decorated vet who paid his dues in Afghanistan, Trace Black can fix anything with an engine and get it revving—even Rafferty’s ridiculous sports car. He’s couldn’t say the same for the knockout driver, who looks like she’s never gripped a gear shaft in her life. Women like Rafferty don’t usually stick around in Laurel Falls, but Trace finds himself showing her everything his hometown has to offer before she cruises on down the road.

As the days pass, Rafferty finds herself charmed by the pace of life and the openhearted warmth of the residents. She’s even tempted to trust again—and it’s all thanks to Trace. He’s not the kind of guy she’s used to falling for, but he just might be the man she needs.

I am used to reading Ms. Dawson's stories that are packed with humor. Leaving Yesterday was different. There were still traces of her trademark humor but over all this read was a journey full of emotion and self examination. Rafferty is a woman who uses travel as a way to escape the heartbreak and insecurity she keeps inside. Running from place to place allows her focus to be on work not disappointment. When circumstances force her to to stop and contemplate her life, career and feelings- she is at a lost. It takes a little small town charm, a sexy cowboy and a broken down ride to set her on a path to healing and finding true happiness. I received an ARC of Leaving Yesterday in exchange for an honest review. No, this is not the standard Zoe Dawson novel but it is just as good maybe better.
